## Authentication
|
|
|
|
Generate API keys on the [API keys page](https://dashboard.mintlify.com/settings/organization/api-keys) in your dashboard. Each API key belongs to an organization--you can use keys across multiple deployments within the same organization.
|
|
|
|
You can create up to 10 API keys per hour per organization.
|
|
|
|
### Admin API key
|
|
|
|
Use the admin API key to authenticate requests to [Trigger update](/api-reference/update/trigger), [Get update status](/api-reference/update/status), [Create agent job](/api-reference/agent/create-agent-job), [Get agent job](/api-reference/agent/get-agent-job), [Get all agent jobs](/api-reference/agent/get-all-jobs), [Get user feedback](/api-reference/analytics/feedback), and [Get assistant conversations](/api-reference/analytics/assistant-conversations).
|
|
|
|
Admin API keys begin with the `mint_` prefix.
|
|
|
|
The admin API key is a server-side secret. Do not expose it in client-side code.
|
|
|
|
### Assistant API key
|
|
|
|
Use the assistant API key to authenticate requests to [Generate assistant message](/api-reference/assistant/create-assistant-message) and [Search documentation](/api-reference/assistant/search) endpoints.
|
|
|
|
Assistant API keys begin with the `mint_dsc_` prefix.
|
|
|
|
The assistant API key is a public token that you can reference in frontend code.
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
Calls using the assistant API token can incur costs: either using your assistant credits or incurring overages.
